Man Behind Fostering Is Cool on "Talking Animals"

Listen Again

My guest on "Talking Animals" April 3 will be Jack Talman, founder of Fostering is Cool.

Notwithstanding the glib Spicoli-speak hanging from its name, Fostering Is Cool is a very serious-minded Tampa organization that promotes the fostering of dogs and cats, with an emphasis on the animals saved from a grim fate by rescue groups.

Indeed, without the foster homes that Talman cultivates, the slew of rescues which seek to place animals in forever homes would be severely hampered in these efforts.

But in the nearly four years since Talman launched Fostering Is Cool, his organization is responsible for more than 500 cats and dogs being placed in temporary homes while awaiting permanent ones.

Jack Talman will speak with us live on "Talking Animals" on April 3 at 9am ET, and listeners are invited to participate in the conversation by calling (813-239-9663) or e-mailing (DJ@wmnf.org).
